Chapter 1 Introduction

1.1 The current English teaching in China
Most of the English classes in China still highly based on the grammar analysis andrelevant exercise teaching method，where teachers talk takes up about 90% or even100% of the whole class time，leaving students nearly no time to raise questions orpractice what they have leamt. Teachers always give explicit explanation of thegrammar rules and learners are required to sit straight and listen carefully. All theexercises in class are all focus on the grammar rules not the meaning. This phenomenonis especially true in senior high school. Some of them even get very high scores in theexams but still can't speak, because the English class put more emphasis on the readingand writing skills but neglect the listening and speaking skills, which can't preparelearners for the challenge of the real life for we use both the receptive and theproductive skills in the real world. Our teaching method is called the jug-and-mugteaching approach, in which the teacher, a full jug, pours knowledge into the emptymug-the student. In this case, learners are passive listeners both physically and mentally.The biggest issue that bothers the English teacher is the silence phenomenon in class,particularly the senior high school students, few of whom get involved in the classactivities actively or respond to the teacher actively. To our surprise, according to theinvestigation, most of the learners believe being active in the class can improve theirlearning outcomes. Research shows some reasons account for the silence phenomenonfrom three aspects: external environment, the teacher and students themselves.
